THE WIDENING GULF
.Between the Different Branches of

me uruun
Portland, April 23. Thcro Is a
widening gulf between members of
!,l. . ...- Tl. --!.. I....UIU
nnd the Junior Order of American
Mechanics on tho subject of McKln-
Hey. A rousing meeting of council
'No. 2, of the Junior Order was held
ifriifisiinv niL'lit, niul 11111111 feelinc was
-- - -r"w ------ - - o.
manifested against certain members
of tho A. P. A. for recent uttcrnnces
regarding MuKi nicy's connection
with tho Young Men's Institute. The
members of tho order claim that Mc
Kinloy Is the advocate of cyery prin
ciple set forth in that constitution,
and that, to disparage him and charge
him with leanings towardCatholicIsm
is little better than an outrage A
promiuent member of tho order who
.was present at the' meeting Tuesday
night said yesterday:
"Tho Junior Order wants it dis
tinctly understood that it is not work-
ling with the A. P. A. in this matter,
lor isitlnany way connected with
lit. Tho membership of tho A. P. A.
(includes a lot of foreigners, who are
strangers to all American sentiments,
ind thcy.aro tho peoplo that are stir
ring up all this hubbub about McKin
ley. If tho A. P. A. wants to light
MoKInloy, let them go ahead and
Bght him. They will get no help
from tho Junior Order. That organ
ization stands for Americanism. Its
Hnembcrship is composed of native
srn Americans, and It doesn't take
(n all the foreign riff-raff ftiat happens
bo opposed to the Catholic church.
don't 6ce why tho A. P. A. wants to
oppose a good American like McKln
ley, but there is probably something
ehlnd it that does not show on the
fcurface."
Meanwhile the A. P. A. is Industri-
sly planning its campalgu. Cora-
ilttees have been organized at head
quarters, and each week bulletins are
ent out to state councils, containing
uch information regarding the views
different presidential possibilities
the committee lias been able to col-
ct. The candidates are waited upon
ud asked to give their opinions on,
certain vital principles of A. P. A. Ism,
and their records are thoroughly
searched for tho least taint or Cath
olic atlillatlon. J. T. Haync, state
secretary of tho American Protective
Association, was seen nt his olllco yes
terday afternoon, concerning McKln
lcy's candidacy, Mr. Hay no said:
"It Is easy enough for people to
talk, but when It comes to n vote, tho
great mojorlty of the members of the
A. P. A. and allied associations, which
are usually included under the gen
eral term, will not vote according to
the facts developed by the committee
nt headquarters. There Is no abso
lute obligation, of course, but there Is
u moral one, and I think It will bo re
spected. About the matter of tho
Junior Order nnd tho A. P. A. not be
ing In harmony, I think that Is mostly
talk. Nearly all of the members of
the Junior Order are amilated with
A. P. A., and. as tho two orders are
organized for a common cause, they
will act together. Of course, with us
as in any other body, thero arc always
dissensions and chronic kickers.
These troubles crop out on tho sur
face, and newspaper men get hold of
them, and talk about lack of harmony.
But It is mostly caused by a few peo
ple, who haye failed to get some ofllce
or arc dissatisfied for other reasons.
I think, when it comes to tho test, wo
will all pull together.
"As far as McKinley is concerned,
it is mora than likely that tho A. P.
A. will work against him. Ho has
been silent when interrogated on tho
immigration and sectarian school
questions, whilo the other candidates
havo given moru or less favorable
replies. My personal opinion Is that
tho choice of the order will be cither
Harrison or Allison."
The A. P. A. Is preparing for an
active campaign In state politics.
There are now 178 lodges in tho state,
where thero were 28 two years ago
every county being represented and
the work of organization is being
pushed in all directions.
Many people do not understand tho
difference between the Junior Order
and the A. P. A. The Junior Order,
despite the name, is tho older organi
zation, but takes a less aggrcssivo
part in the warfare on Catholicism,
and therefore has many members who
canuot consistently belong to the A.
P. A. None but Americans by birth
can become members of the Junior
Order, while tho A. P. A. includes
foreigners, only requiring that they
accept Its principles which are op
posed to sectarianism in any form.
The Junior Order is a benevolent or
ganization, which the A. P. A. is not,
and has, therefore, a much larger
membership the largest, it is
claimed, of any order in existence.
Chicago, April 2:1. A Special to
the Tribune, from Washington, says:
In spite of oniclal denials at the
state department, It Is now admitted
generally that a note has been sent to
Madrid by Secretary Olncy. An
additional report Is now in circulation
to tho effect that this note was a
forerunner of a proposition on tho
part or the president that Cuba should
be allowed to purchase her Independ
ence from Spain, rind that Senor
Palma, who is to be made minister of
tho Cuban government here ns soon
as his country's Independence Is
gained, suggested this plan to Mr.
Cleveland, telling him It would bo
satisfactory to tho Cubans. The
Cuban leaders laugh at tho reports
from Spain of promised political re
forms for the Island.
HOME HULK SI'UKNED.
Tampa, Fin., April 23 The dis
patches announcing that Cuba will
get homo rule, are received with scorn
by tho Cuban colony hero. Colonel
Fernando Fignrcro, the Cuban dclo
gato to Florida, said:
"Should Spain over proffer us home
rule It will bo spurned. As long as
Cubans llvo they will light for liberty.
Absoluto independence is what wo
want; nothing else.
"Campos promised us home rule In
1870, but It was never granted. Wo
are not to be bluffed again.
"What they now offer Is the law
proposed by Alburzuza, the min
ister of colonies, in March, 180,'), and
accepted by the cortcs, but never put
into effect.
"This measure wns suggested by tho
startling capture of tho Lagonda,
Amndls and Bnrawa, at Ferunndiuo,
loaded with munitions of war fpr
Cuba. Spain lias been loath to con
cede that much to us, but now thinks
it tho only redeeming measure.
"If they havo our forces in Cuba so
scattered, bewildered and surrounded,
why are they so eager to grant
any such concessions?"
BAILED FOU CUUA.
Key West, Fla., April 23. Tho
schooner Competitor, commanded by
Alfred Labordo, left this port about
midnight, with arms and men for
Cuba. Tho schooner carries GO Cubans
and Americans. It Is said to have
aboard 800 rifles, 000 rovolvers, COO
machets and 150,000 rounds of ammunition.
Tho Competitor proceeded to Sugar
Loaf Koy,25 miles north of hcre,whoro
more ammunition and arms were
taken on board. It Is said the Cubans
waiting on Sugar Loaf Key havo three
rapld-flre guns.
After getting tho arms and men at
Sugar Loaf Koy the. Competitor was
to bo met by tho steam tug, George
W. Chllds, which had been engaged
to tow tho schooner to Cuba. Labordo
told his friends that tho expedition
would land in Pinar del Rio province
tonight.
The schooner slipped out under the
nose of tho revenue cutter. Merrill.
When it was learned that it carried
arms and men the customs ofilcera
ordered the Merrill to pursue her, but
tho schooner had too good a start
to be overtaken. Alfred Labordo,
who commanded the expedition is a
wealthy Cuban of Tampa.
Cuban leaders here say that as soon
as JIaceo receives the ammuultion
carried by the Competitor, an attack
will be made on the troops.
